After some interesting games this past weekend I figured I would be in the clear for an uneventful week. But like with most things in my life, something odd always pops up.
- After running a few errands Saturday, I came home and camped out on the couch for football. . .it was a sad day, Texas and Georgia lost
- I kept staring at the tree, trying to pluck up the energy to get the rest of the ornaments on
- And then I rubbed my eye. . .
- It was sore, really sore. I went to the bathroom, removed my makeup and inspected my eye.
- Nothing was amiss, no bloodshot eyes, no eye boogies, anything; the soreness could best be explained as it felt like a bruise
- I tried to keep my hands off of my eye and got ready for bed
- I woke up the next morning, the corner of my eye was still really sore but the pain jutted up the nose and around to the start of my eyebrow. . .HUH?
- There was some bruising but again, the eye itself was fine. I popped some ibuprofen, got ready and headed out to pick up Stace for the football game
- All I can say about the Titans/Texans game is, well the seats were awesome and the weather was perfect but the consistency of the Titans was lacking
- Towards the end of the game the pain had gone down and around my cheek. This is all on the right side of my face.
- After a restless night of trying to keep enough ibuprofen in me, I broke down and called my doctor
- This pain just isn’t normal, I have had a million sinus infections but this was nothing like those in the past
- A visit to my doctor, where I stumped her, they threw out possibilities of very few options, none of which sounded appealing, starting with a CT Scan
- Finally I walked out with a round of antibiotics with a promise to monitor the pain and let them know what was going on Wednesday
- Two days of antibiotics down and I feel much better, I am still tender, the swelling has gone down and the bruising is not noticible
- I am beginning to think I need to become a science experiement
- Dad added another item to his Christmas list. . . I believe I know where I get this from
- I am finally below 180lbs. . . I now weigh 179
- I still have a lot of work to do but I am losing it and that helps me feel better
- I have to make peanut butter chocolate balls for Bird, these might be the death of me
- I am also making a birthday cake for my BFF, I can’t wait to see how I do with the frosting–it has been awhile
- I am watching all kinds of Christmas movies in between football, I am also getting a bit sad that football is winding down
- The sad panda face might be coming out soon
And I am begging Mother Nature to please, please get the weather under control. It needs to be much cooler than it is. . . I don’t want to wear shorts and flip flops now. So bring on the snow!
